Hi all.
Is there any way to get additional Flight Crew Berths in 2.7.1 on a carrier, without adding more Hangars? I believe, ages ago it was achieved by adding more Crew Quarters, but C# doesn’t allow that.
Would Cryogenic Transport do the trick? Maybe Passenger Accomodation?
Thanks in advance.
Flight crew berths are no longer tracked in-game as of C# 1.0, it is just a flat additional crew requirement per-hangar (added automatically). You don’t need to add anything on top of that even if the parasite crews are larger than that space.
If you are worried about rescuing lifeboats, just put emergency cryo module on your ships.
Nope, that’s not for rescue purposes. I just have a corvette that I wanted to use as a parasite, but it is crew-heavy (3k tons, 114 crew). So I wondered if I have to overbuild the carrier 2x in size just to avoid crew dissatisfaction.
No, the parasites crews are no longer tracked. It required too much micromanagement for no real gameplay gain, so now each hangar generates a ‘default’ number of flight crew berths, which is assumed to be sufficient for any parasites.
Thank you all for your answers, and thank you Steve for your awesome game. I love it!
It might be a good idea to just remove the “flight crew berths” text entirely to prevent misunderstandings.
